11430421b4 samples/bpf: make tracing programs to be more CO-RE centric
The existing tracing programs have been developed for a considerable
period of time and, as a result, do not properly incorporate the
features of the current libbpf, such as CO-RE. This is evident in
frequent usage of functions like PT_REGS* and the persistence of "hack"
methods using underscore-style bpf_probe_read_kernel from the past.

These programs are far behind the current level of libbpf and can
potentially confuse users. Therefore, this commit aims to convert the
outdated BPF programs to be more CO-RE centric.

02dabc247a samples/bpf: fix symbol mismatch by compiler optimization
Currently, multiple kprobe programs are suffering from symbol mismatch
due to compiler optimization. These optimizations might induce
additional suffix to the symbol name such as '.isra' or '.constprop'.

    # egrep ' finish_task_switch| __netif_receive_skb_core' /proc/kallsyms
    ffffffff81135e50 t finish_task_switch.isra.0
    ffffffff81dd36d0 t __netif_receive_skb_core.constprop.0
    ffffffff8205cc0e t finish_task_switch.isra.0.cold
    ffffffff820b1aba t __netif_receive_skb_core.constprop.0.cold

To avoid this, this commit replaces the original kprobe section to
kprobe.multi in order to match symbol with wildcard characters. Here,
asterisk is used for avoiding symbol mismatch.

4a0ee78890 samples/bpf: unify bpf program suffix to .bpf with tracing programs
Currently, BPF programs typically have a suffix of .bpf.c. However,
some programs still utilize a mixture of _kern.c suffix alongside the
naming convention. In order to achieve consistency in the naming of
these programs, this commit unifies the inconsistency in the naming
convention of BPF kernel programs.
